First Week of Comet Nation Comet School was a rousing success. Scholars engaged in relational capacity activities where they begin to make personal connections with their peers and teachers in order to manifest a classroom environment (culture) teaming with joy, high expectations, safety, support, and learning. Examples included Mr. Boaitey's AVID Elective class conducting "partner Interviews" with each other and subsequently introducing their partners to the class; Ms. Tucker's EAST class engaging in "team building questioning Cue Cards, where scholars responded to prompts, sharing their responses with their partner and then with the entire class; and Ms. Riordan's social studies class "story swap" where scholars share stories with one another and then shares them with the class.

Making personal connections with our scholars is one to ensure we meeting the mission of Mills Middle School which is to meet the personalized academic and social needs of all scholars and to prepare them for success.
